I don't have this device anymore but I had it working on a traccar server I set up using port 5093. AFAIK, the device uses 'watch' protocol.

Some java decode/encode/test stuff here.

Hope it is of some help!

Thanks for your reply! After searching a bit (thanks to the leads you provided) I have the impression that my tk-905 uses another protocol, the Huabao protocol.

Thanks again for your reply, which has given me some ideas for further research.

Hi I have two tk918's I am trying to add them on one email account to use on mytkstar or winnes. When I try to add one of them that works fine. If I then try to add the second one it says "no permission" I've tried RESET123456 on it but to no avail. I can log in to both separately fine using the login by ID. Just not log in by username with my account email. I've tried the winnes app and mytkstar app. Any ideas? Kind regards Jason.
